LRQA's Climate change experts

Our experts combine our unique methodology and their technical expertise with considerable sector experience and extensive knowledge of international and local standards and schemes. They are also active in shaping the future of emissions trading and carbon standards through their involvement in technical committees.

These include the International Standards Organisation (ISO), International Emission Trading Association (IETA), World Resources Institute (WRI) and World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) and the Emissions Trading Group (ETG). We were also responsible for authoring the Voluntary Carbon Standard (VCS) and we are a founding member and Vice President of the Designated Operational Entities and Independent Entities Association (DIA). LRQA is also a verification partner of the Carbon Disclosure Project.

In the pursuit of reaching higher standards and transparency in OOCL’s Greenhouse Gas (GHG) reporting, OOCL is very pleased to announce its achievement in not only meeting the GHG Scopes 1 and 2 inventory verification requirements that it announced last year, but also for Scope 3 which focuses on indirect emissions associated to air travel by employees of its Hong Kong office and as defined in the “Greenhouse Gas Protocol – A Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard”.

Lloyd’s Register (LR) is pleased to announce that OOCL has taken a further step forward in their Greenhouse Gas (GHG) reporting by extending the scope to container terminals, namely Long Beach Container Terminal, LLC. in the United States and Kaohsiung Container Terminal in Taiwan. The verification work was undertaken by LRQA, a member of the Lloyd’s Register group (LR).

Earlier this year, the United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS), met with representatives of both global and national verification bodies to discuss the pilot programme for the Verification of GHG Emissions from Maritime Transport (Marine MRV).
